Forgot that they put that one out. They get the subsequent thumbs down for doing nothing to promote it. Of course, this statement assumes that they did anything to promote ANY of their releases. We know the answer to that one. Wow, Giant gets high marks for the Owsley disc. Forgot that they put that one out. They get the subsequent thumbs down for doing nothing to promote it.

At first it was kind of strange hearing Dolby trying his hand at bluegrass, but I like it more each time I hear it. Imogen Heap on jaw harp is a hoot!

I kind of consider him and Karl Wallinger similar dudes, one on the guitar, one on synths: Big thinkers, appreciative of culture that came before...aware of politics. One man bands with immense talent to compose, arrange, and perform the whole thing if need be (and produce). WHile the end product isn't always perfect, I give these guys tons of credit for innovation and putting themselves out there. Dolby rules.
